Chapter 57 Chu Nanxuan’s Mother Yang

Xie Xingchen also sneered: "In terms of origin and family background, neither the Yu family nor the Xie family can compare to my mother's family."

The Dou family also has a history of hundreds of years in Jiangnan.

It's a pity that the Dou family is now in decline, and they are all unworthy descendants.

In recent years, Dou and Xie Xingchen have been relying on the Xie family's money to supplement their income.

Mrs. Dou's face darkened again when she thought of the mess in her mother's family.

My mother's family is no longer reliable, so I can only rely on my sons Xie Changzhi and Chu Nanxuan.

However, Xie Changzhi is far away at the border and does not know when he will come back.

At the moment, Mrs. Dou could only look at Chu Nanxuan.

As long as Chu Nanxuan can marry Xie Xingchen and Chu He is found, everything will develop in a good direction.

But Chu Nanxuan again——

Xie Xingchen's original intention was to appease Madam Dou and make her feel better, but he did not want to unintentionally make Madam Dou feel even worse.

Mrs. Dou remained sullen and silent for the rest of the journey.

Xie Xingchen was also thinking about Chu He'an's affairs. He had been in a bad mood for a while, and he was silent and didn't know what he was thinking about.

Half an hour later, all the female relatives arrived at Daxiangguo Temple on Yulong Mountain in the suburbs of Beijing.

The Yu family and Xie Zhaozhao have always been unpopular among the female relatives in the capital, but who can tell Xie Wei, the Duke of Liang, is the real deal?
Those ladies didn't want to make the two of them look bad in front of them, so they still maintained their superficial politeness.

Mrs. Jiangning Hou always hated the Yu family. She sneered and looked away, and quickly entered the Zen courtyard with her daughter and daughter-in-law.

Yu snorted coldly, and naturally was too lazy to pay attention to her. She took Xie Zhaozhao and followed the monks to the monastery arranged for their mother and daughter.

"I'm going to live with the two people in the second room." Yu's voice was cold, with straightforward rejection on her face.

"Well, there's nothing we can do about it."

Xie Zhaozhao said in a gentle voice, "There are many female relatives coming to the Water and Land Dojo. This is the only monastery in Daxiangguo Temple. We can barely arrange it for each family."

"Mom, just bear with it." Xie Zhaozhao patted Mrs. Yu's hand, "Anyway, I have to go to the main hall to pray every day. I'm too tired to get up after a whole day. I just go to bed when I come back. Maybe I don't even need a meal. See you."

Yu frowned for a moment and nodded: "That's true."

However, looking at Xie Zhaozhao's calm and indifferent look, Mrs. Yu secretly muttered to herself that her daughter was quite generous and could keep her composure.

It's not like her, she is so angry when she sees Dou and Xie Xingchen!

She has such a terrible hot temper.

"Mrs. Xie." A soft call suddenly came from the corner of the corridor not far away.

Xie Zhaozhao looked up, and a coldness flashed in his eyes.

It was a woman wearing blue-grey plain clothes, and she looked about thirty years old.

Curved eyebrows, big eyes, and a plain face.

Her dark cloud-like hair was simply pulled into a bun with a simple wooden hairpin, and there was no decoration at all on her body.

That was Chu Nanxuan’s mother, Mrs. Yang.

Although Mrs. Yu doesn't have a good face towards Chu Nanxuan now, she will naturally not keep a straight face when faced with Yang's politeness and thoughtfulness. "Good day, Mrs. Chu, are you going to settle down in the monastery?"

"Yes." Ms. Yang nodded and glanced at Xie Zhaozhao with a faint look in her eyes. "I haven't been out for a long time. Maybe I haven't seen Mrs. Xie and Zhaozhao for a long time. You two, mother and daughter, are still the same as before."

"Mrs. Chu, too." Mrs. Yu didn't know how to speak politely, so she just smiled and said, "I'll go settle in first."

Yang nodded: "Okay."

Dou and Xie Xingchen followed Yu.

Seeing Mrs. Yang, Mrs. Dou immediately put on a smile and said, "Mrs. Chu——"

"Then I'll take my leave." Madam Yang nodded slightly, and without waiting for Madam Dou to say anything, she left with her personal maid.

Xie Xingchen, who was about to meet him, froze on the spot.

The smile on Mrs. Dou's face seemed to be stuck, and she was completely embarrassed.

Yu glanced at the two people, sneered, and left with Xie Zhaozhao.

When they arrived at the room in the Zen courtyard where the Xie family settled down, Mrs. Yu sarcastically said with a smile: "You deserve it."

Mr. Dou felt that Mr. Yu was from a rude family.She felt that the Dou family had a hundred years of history in Jiangnan and had a solid foundation, so naturally she looked down on the Yu family in her heart.

But Yang was the princess of the previous dynasty.

Her status was noble, and she had the confidence not to take Dou seriously.

Xie Zhaozhao thought, as expected, evil people still need to be tortured by evil people.

Yu suddenly frowned and said, "Zhaozhao, you said she suddenly showed up to say hello. Doesn't she want to talk about your marriage to Chu Nanxuan?"

"Maybe."

Xie Zhaozhao made Yu a cup of tea.

Yu's brows furrowed even more tightly.

Chu Nanxuan and Xie Xingchen didn't know anything about it, and she didn't want to acknowledge the marriage.

……

After Xie Zhaozhao settled the Yu family, he went to his Zen room.

When they were going out, they met Dou and Xie Xingchen entering the courtyard.

Both mother and daughter looked extremely ugly.

Xie Zhaozhao turned a blind eye.

The Zen room arranged for Xie Zhaozhao is next door to Yu's family. The furnishings are simple and plain, but very clean. The room still smells of burning incense.

Xie Zhaozhao was a little tired after riding a carriage all the way, so he took a break.

About half an hour later, Yang came to visit and asked Xie Zhaozhao to come and talk.

Xie Zhaozhao sat on the Arhat bed in the Zen room, reading scriptures, and said calmly: "I won't go."

"But -" Xiang Gui looked troubled, "Mrs. Chu is an elder. I'm afraid it wouldn't be good if she didn't go, right?"

"I just won't go." Xie Zhaozhao said slowly, "I'm not feeling well and I'm just going to rest."

She didn't want to have anything to do with Chu Nanxuan, nor did she want to see Yang's face.

Not showing up was her attitude.

Xianggui left bravely and came back after a while to say, "Mrs. Chu is very concerned about Miss Chu's health and asked Miss to have a good rest."

"Of course she can only say that." Xie Zhaozhao laughed, "You can't slap the table and scold me for being ungrateful, right? She is not mine now, and she doesn't have the capital."

Xianggui hesitated and said, "Miss seems to be very unhappy with Mrs. Chu."

"That's right." A sneer appeared on Xie Zhaozhao's lips, "I don't like anyone!"

Xianggui didn’t know what to say.

There was a snapping sound from the Zen room opposite.

Xie Zhaozhao stood up and went to the window, opened half of the window and took a look. The window of Xie Xingchen's room was flashing.

Xie Zhaozhao smiled: "She is very angry now."

"Miss, do you mean the second lady?"

"Of course." Xie Zhaozhao stared at Xie Xingchen's room with a dark and cold expression.

Yang eats fasting and chants Buddha's name, and except for necessary occasions, he basically stays in the small Buddhist hall at home and lives in seclusion.

After Xie Zhaozhao married into the Chu family in her previous life, she was very respectful and filial to her.

Yang, however, always had a cold face and expressed his dislike for Xie Zhaozhao every moment.

And he always has to set rules for Xie Zhaozhao.

Every now and then, people are forced to kneel down in ancestral halls and copy scriptures in Buddhist halls.

Xie Zhaozhao thought that she was Chu Nanxuan's mother, and she had always been submissive.

Think of her as an elder with a bad temper.

But people who look kind and kind while eating fast and chanting Buddha's name are actually the most vicious people secretly.
